Seattle

Jed had to go out of town for a week for work so I decided that I wasn't going to be home all alone---I was going to head to Seattle and party!!! I hadn't been home in a year so it was soooo nice to go home again. I kept telling Jed it was my "practice flight" with Cash to see how he did---ok, let's be honest---it was really to see how I would do. I'm happy to report that both Cash and I did great on the flight! He slept the whole time and didn't make a peep. The only thing that I was bugged about it that I had a middle seat and neither of the people sitting in the aisle would trade me seats....jerks!! So now that I know Cash is great on airplanes I'm trying to convince Jed to let me go to Hawaii at the end of the month to visit Kami. The best part of going to Seattle was having Maile and the boys surprise me on Sunday when they came from Oregon. It was so cute...the doorbell rang Sunday night and when we answered the door there stood Quinn with a birthday present and he said "Happy Birthday aunt Lani!!!" Too cute. So Maile and I had to go to Costco to get a few things and found the best cake in the world---it was chocolate with mousse frosting and cream puffs inbetween the layers and on top of the cake!!!!! We even celebrated my birthday a day early just so we could bust into the cake!!! We pretty much ate it for breakfast, lunch and dinner for the next two days!!!! I was so sad to see they didn't have the same cake here at the Orem Costco.

Here's just a few picutures of Cash meeting his cousins and his Aunt Maile. Between my mom and dad and Aunt Maile I hardly had to take care of my kid all week!!!! The last picture is Quinn and I at the Mariners baseball game. We were worried that Quinn would get a little bored but he loved it! We had awesome seats about 20 rows back from 3rd base. Of course trying to be the favorite aunt I had to buy Quinn cotton candy and a 32 ounce Root Beer for the game. He thought it was so cool that we could eat peanuts and throw the shells on the ground! I had a great time in Seattle but it was nice to come home and see Jed again. I got home on my birthday and Jed spoiled me rotten with beautiful roses, he took me to dinner to Ruby River---yum! and he game me a beautiful new bracelet....oh and he bouht me new luggage for my trip. I love him!!!
